HalfPie, a fellow Kiwi blogger, has referred me to the Toyota Hilux Ad showing in NZ just now. He’s provided a couple of posts with some great analysis: “Out of the Way Sheep Shagger” and “Scandal on the Farm”. Take a look at the ad and then consider HalfPie’s question: “Given the rather Australian sounding voices of the bulls, does the scene in which they tell the ram to “Get out of the way, sheep-shagger!” actually become a political statement on relationships between Aussies and Kiwis?”

I’ve posted more detail on this ad on Duncans.TV“, October 15.
Hi i have only been living for a year in New Zealand (Christchruch) in 2001 but i can tell you that i expect at least a respectable strike against that aussie assult from my second favourite country in the world (I’m calling lovely the green hell)!
